Spiders May Be More Than Messy

We’ve all seen the campy horror movies with the creepy spider webs and the creepier music. And we’ve all dusted the cobwebs from light fixtures and corners in our homes. But having a real spider infestation can be more than just a nuisance—it can be potentially deadly.

Spiders are close relatives of other scary insects such as mites, ticks and scorpions, and belong in the group referred to as arachnids. Most spiders are identified by size, color, markings on the body and the number (usually six or eight) and arrangement of eyes.

Many people have a fear of spider bites, with good reason; they may be painful and cause serious infections. Young children, the elderly and hypersensitive individuals are more likely to react more strongly to a spider bite, especially if it is from one of the two deadliest spiders found in the state, the black widow and the brown recluse.

While spiders serve a useful purpose outside by controlling other insects, having a spider infestation in your home or commercial space can be unnerving at the least and dangerous at the worst.
